Cirque du Ciel: between the street and the sky

Scenes of young people performing their circus skills

Main Content

Cirque du Ciel brings the magic of the circus to young people in Cornwall. We work with schools, youth and community groups in areas of economic disadvantage and geographic isolation. Each of our programmes is tailored to meet the needs of the participants.

The young people learn skills which are exciting, healthy and fun. They also build self-esteem, team spirit and social awareness. In turn, this helps in other areas of their development, improving concentration, co-ordination and confidence. Wherever possible, we try to include opportunities for participation at local community events.Cirque du Ciel works only with trained teachers and assistants. We have strict Child Protection and Health and Safety policies, and robust insurance cover.
